Winter Costumes.
A novelty in MORE shows the glace

olive and red, gray and sapphire and
heliotrope and tan being among the
contrasts While this is attractive be-
cause of its oddly, it is not nearly SO
desirable for a gown one is to wear
often as the monochrome MORE effect
Rich velvet effects in piaids are
shown upon wool backgrounds. and
are combined with wool stuffs of the
color most prominent in the plaid.
Large squares in dark colors are OBJ
tanning, and the effect is very good.
Frise and satin lines are introduced to
add to the beauty of the plaids, which
usually show many colors. though oe-
casionally they are limited to two
A heliotrope velvet is given a plaid
effect by being partly cut and partly
frise, while the charm is enhanced by
hair-lines of white satin irregu larly

be used. Many skirts will be made
entirely of the plaid. with the bodice
and drapery of the plain material
Only few people look well in plaid
bodice, and even they look better in a
plain one.
The dull plaids, which show dark
brown and green. blue and red. and
brown and blue. are noted in fine
light weight cloths, and are so quiet in
effect that an entire costume may be
made of them without one being made
too conscious of the pattern. These
plaids are also in vogue for the long
wraps that one likes to assume when
in a hurry-wraps that little sea
water will not damage or sprinkle OF
rain ruin. Surahs in bright colors,
such as red. sapphire. heliotrope, tan
or golden brown, are liked for lining
these rather somber-hued cloaks.
A coarsely-woven but really fine,
soft suiting is shown in stripes, the
colors being arranged in what the
shopman calls "horse- blanket fash
ion. Glints of red and blue show
through the dull brown. olive, blue OF
gray of the stripes. and the result is a
very jaunty-l looking stuff, eminently
adapted to outdoor wear.
Another of the seasons materials
looks like canvas worked over closely
by hand; it is shown in plain and in
fancy plaid patterns the two being
combined. The plaid is broken one,

colors sound extreme, but it must be
remembered they are merely in threads
and at little distance give only a
pleasing, fanciful effect The plain
material Invariably matches the back
ground. and may be made up alone,
with Surah or MORE for trimmings.
Other suitings show dark bach
grounds with narrow stripes upon
them, and these bid fair to be as pop
ular as the so-called trousering pat
terms On dark green at intervals of a
little over half an inch are alternate
lines of red and yellow; on blue are
lines of red and white; on brown are
red and gold; and on black are red
and white.
Some very smart small plaids have
upon them the tiny white flecks we
used to call 'tsnowfakes," and they
are very attractive. A dark claret is
plaided with a dull olive, and the little
fakes are here, there and everywhere
A blue is plaided with brown, and a
garnet with sapphire blue; but upon all
the white dot is seen. The claret- and
olive plaid is made with an untrimmed
skirt that has full. much-wrinkled
tablier which is quite short, and a
long, gracefully hung. unlooped back.
The bodice of the same material falls
in double points in front and in quad
ripple points at the back, and closes with
small claret buttons. The high collar
and deep turn back cuffs are of white

silk braid-an arrangement that al
ways has an indescribable air of suita-
bility. A round hat of olive velvet,
with claret tips and olive wings, is
worn with this costume; and when a
coat is required. it is of the same ma
terial, lined and trimmed with mink
